Is anybody selling bullets made on this Jacket?
Also any new results from these jackets?

Ted,
You may be aware Berger is already making an 85 grain FB bullet based on the short jackets. Give them a try if you can.
With these new jackets my bullets came up on the light side at 78 grains, but they shot not bad, see picture below.
At 200Y I did a quick load development on the sighter, with a full case (36.1gr)of Norma 201 grouping on the top. Re-zeroed and went to do three 5-shot groups without returning to sighters again. Just guessing the flags the best I could, as I only wanted to see the vertical, which was good except on target 2 where I had one shot popped out of the group.
No more day at the range since then, weather and other things, other than our monthly 300Y match where it shot well again.
Good luck, and let me know where I can help,
George
